     Type:  defect       |    Status:  new       
Component:  Google Talk  |   Version:  2.6.3

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 I am new to linux using OpenSUSE 11.2 (KDE). I have installed Pidgin as a
 substitute for Google Talk.[[BR]]
 Now the issue is that I am able to do instant messaging and voice chat on
 GTalk, but it appears that there is some problem with the video
 chat.[[BR]]
 Please find the debug snippet below:-

 I think there is some issue with 'GConf', though I have no idea what that
 is. Please let me know what should I do to resolve this issue.

 Thanks,[[BR]]
